Today, after having recently moved 300 miles to be with my boyfriend of 2 years, I have to celebrate Christmas alone. He never thought our relationship important enough to tell his family about me, and doesn't want it to be "awkward." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend decided that he needed some time alone for a few weeks. This break just so happens to include our one year anniversary, Christmas, New Year's, and my birthday. Now I get to spend the next three weeks alone. FML
Today, I got a phone call from my boyfriend breaking things off with me. He waited until the day after Christmas because he wanted all his presents. And he got me nothing. FML
Today, I sit isolated from my family with presents I cannot give. Though I respect my brother's religious beliefs and life ideals, he chooses to hate mine. He has gone out of his way to refuse patching up our relationship and now my parents who are at his house are not answering their phone. "Merry X-mas…" FML
Today, my fiancé broke it off with me on our 3-year anniversary at 12:01 a.m. on Thanksgiving morning. Guess who gets to go to family gatherings where everyone will be asking where he is. FML
Today, I sat for 3 hours at my boyfriend's Christmas celebrations. He has 22 cousins. They open presents one at a time. In silence. I got nothing. FML
Today, it's 49 days until Christmas, and all I can think of is how it’s mine and my partner's first Christmas together but she’ll be out of town. Apparently, she’d rather hang out with her whackjob family rather than my normal, stable family. FML
Today, I realized this holiday season is the first time in 4 years that I won't have a partner to share the holidays with. My partner of 4 years cheated on me this summer. I'm still bitter and dating is unnecessarily difficult. I wish I could just be happy alone and never feel lonely again. FML
Today, I spent Thanksgiving alone. I'm not close to my family, I'm the black sheep but my sister said she would come over. To my surprise, she ended up going to my family's', where I'm not wanted. My boyfriend went to his family's, so I spent the whole day alone. He'd even took my dog. FML
Today, my boyfriend decided to give me my Christmas present early because he's going to his grandparents' house for Christmas and won't see me. I was excited, until I unwrapped a sweater that I left there a month ago. FML
Today, my mum told me she would rather spend Christmas with her boyfriend than with her own family. FML

Well then it shouldn't be too awkward for his family when you dump him.

I've a similar situation except for the length of time and moving to be with mine, I'm afraid my bf hasn't told his family about me either. So yeah, that really sucks.

He probably thinks your family will freak out when they see your piercings and your dragon tattoo.

This is definitely true. Men usually want to show off their girlfriends unless they're cheating or intend on cheating. Probably, in some cases they may just be embarrassed of their girl but that doesn't make things better. There's absolutely no excuse for his actions.

I don't know about that, it may be true but from this FML it seems like they met on-line and the man was probably embarrassed to mention that he had to use on-line dating or he planned to introduce her in person rather than over a computer screen. Don't mistake me though: I'm not defending him - he is definitely an ass for letting OP make such a drastic move only to be stranded for Christmas.

YDI. Who dates someone for two years and moves to be with him without ever having met his family?
